Barack Obama For Sale: 50% Off

The following email intercept from a senior Managing Director of Obama bastion Evercore (Roger Altman: nuf said), explains all there is to know about the Obama presidency, but it does not explain why Groupon still does not have a "meet your president, half off price" coupon yet. Anyway, we'll got and report ourselves to @AttackWatch immediately as this is obviously a non-subversive counter-disinformation campaign.

Hi there - fundraising this quarter has been a struggle (as you can imagine give all the negative stuff around the President) - they are offering a one off opportunity to attend this small dinner on Monday for $25k instead of the full max out of $38.5k, or a couple at $38.5k instead of $77k. Just wanted to offer that in case you're interested!

I'm co-hosting a small dinner with President Barack Obama at the Park Avenue home of Jane Hartley and Evercore CEO Ralph Schlosstein on Monday September 19th at 5:30pm. Evercore Chairman and former Assistant Treasury Secretary Roger Altman is also a co-host. Many other senior Wall Street individuals will be attending.

This will be an intimate dinner with the opportunity to spend quality time with the President in a private home. Given the current Republican field, it is more imperative than ever that we re-elect President Obama and I hope you can join us on September 19th.

The catsup business must be quite brisk in order for Liveshot ( read: Mamma T ) to upgrade the flagship to a schooner. The Town/County of Nantucket had better cash that check in a timely manner, would be my advice to them.

This is all a small price to pay in order to repay Obama for the GM restructuring...wonder what the final total of Evercore employees in attendance will be?

""Altman is founder and chairman of Evercore Partners, which advised on the GM deal. Evercore, after being paid $46 million by GM pre-bankruptcy, asked for a $17.9 million "success fee." A U.S. bankruptcy trustee termed the fees "staggering" and "inordinately large" and said it "clearly exceeds the bounds of reasonableness" given that "Evercore had no success at finding a purchaser or funder for the Debtor.""

The Danish live in their own little world. They paved the whole frigging Island with windmills; literally; from shore to shore, and then off-shore. The result? they pay they electric bill to Germany every year; they live on a giant extension cord under the North Sea. they "think" they're a green country. I wouldn't be expecting them to sober up anytime soon.
